The Cultural Collective
By combining his passion for poker with interests off the table - including art and design, music and fashion - Neymar is able to create exciting experiences and one-off activities which will reward the PokerStars Community.
The latest member of the Cultural Collective is UK artist, musician and songwriter Laurie Vincent who has created a bespoke deck of playing cards that are exclusively available through his collaboration with Neymar Jr.
"Cards are the centre of every poker game," said Neymar. "This collaboration with Laurie felt like the perfect way to shake up the game. He’s not afraid of bold designs – much like myself – and I’m excited to gift these to the PokerStars community.”
"When I was approached by Neymar Jr to be part of the PokerStars Cultural Collective, I jumped at the chance"
Meanwhile, Vincent said he loves to apply his style and artwork to different products, including this deck of playing cards.
"When I was approached by Neymar Jr to be part of the PokerStars Cultural Collective, I jumped at the chance," said Vincent. "I was inspired by Neymar Jr’s bold style on and off the pitch and included that strong identity in my designs. I don't think there is a much bolder animal than a cheetah, a fur of yellow and black spots. Iconic.”
